Is the update and application of new AWAF attack signatures "Service Affecting"?
Hi;
Is the update and application of new AWAF or ASM attack signatures "Service Affecting"? Also does applying the new attack signatures entail a reboot of the device?
Kindly

Hi Wasfi_Bounni ,
Yes , it may impcat you.
and not it depends :- you want to enforce signtaures immediately. ( may impact you and produce false positives )
- you can keep these signature under learning for a while ( Readness period "default 7 days" )
Open ( Security >> Application security >> Learning and blocking settinngs >>> Attack signatures )
- If you want to enforce it directley :
open this :Make sure ( you're selecting enforce updated rule immediately ...... ).
>>> by doing this all newly updated signature will be enforced directly.
- If you want to keep updated signature for a while and in learning and after checking your learning suggestion to take your decision :
modify your configuration like this :
>>> performing this shoud put your newly signatures in statging waiting the ( Readness period to be fininshed ) to be ready to be enforced and you will work on parallel on learning suggestions ( Accept / delete suggestions ) based on your analysis in suggestions collected from requests samples.
I hope this helps you 🙂
